... how come I'm paying all this money for AI, and there's no productivity? What are you seeing out there?

Yeah, look, if, if you'll allow me, like, I think there's some table-setting that needs to be done because, you know, like, this is a really complicated topic space, and I think you really encapsulated what's happening in the market really well and succinctly.

Like, over the last three years, artificial intelligence has gone from this niche technology discussion to the dominant strategic conversation that's happening across every major industry and every boardroom everywhere.

And, and nowhere is that conversation more important or more complicated than, I think, in the end- the energy industry.

A- and I think that's because energy really sort of sits at the center of everything, you know? It's, like, real drivers for economic growth, industrial production.

It plays a key role in national security.

It is underpinning all of our critical infrastructure.

This is, this is not rocket science.
